S.H.U.D.cast

The Omen (1976)

It’s week three of “Y’all Mothaf*ckas Need Satan” and Austin has assured us that we’re back on track with an actually Satanic horror film – 1976’s THE OMEN. Along the way hear us discuss our Oscars nominations thoughts (we’re multi-faceted film fans here at the SHUDcast), Cody finally watching his Unholy Grail movie MARRIAGE STORY, and then Lucas’s potentially unpopular thoughts on our main topic at hand! So feed your Rottweilers, check your scalps for birthmarks, and watch out for a bunch of Unholy Knives and thank you for tuning into The SHUDcast!

The Devils (1971)

Welcome to Part II of “Y’all Mothaf*ckas Need Satan” where we get in deeper with the devil (and, in Austin’s opinion, outside the confines of horror movies entirely) with Ken Russell’s 1971 sweaty, gorgeous, and supremely overdue for a decent release, THE DEVILS. Along this path to Hell we discuss our newly launched Patreon (patreon.com/SHUDcast), Cody’s continued fear of dealing with the concept of divorce on film, and so, so much Ken Russell.

The Sentinel (1977)

Welcome to the first SHUDcast of 2024! We enter this new and unholy year with new and unholy practices! First is our process by which we select our films – Cody has introduced our first thematic grouping called “Y’all Mothaf***as need Satan” and his pick within that theme is 1977’s THE SENTINEL – a WILD and seemingly under-discussed flick. We change that here with a broad talk about the movie and its place ( or lack thereof) in the horror canon. Along the way we discuss allll the movies we watched over the holidays as well as our brand new PATREON! Yes, finally, it is going to be available to you all so you can inject all that sweet sweet bonus SHUDcast goodness into your veins.

Talk To Me

Happy Shud-umn! We hope to make your Black Friday even darker as you wait in line at 4am for the finest toaster oven $35 can buy… Does anyone do that anymore? Nostalgia for Old Black Friday is a sad thing… But what isn’t sad is our autumnal discussion about all things improv rap, Apple, weird Hulu commercials, post-Halloween watches, BeWAUGHnd Fest, and our feature conversation on A24’s highest grossing horror film to date, TALK TO ME. We hope you enjoy the feast!

V/H/S/85 with David Bruckner & Jordan Belfi

It’s all been leading to this… We put on our most neon Jazzercize outfits and unfurled the magnetic tape carpet for the first ever guests on the SHUDcast – actor Jordan Belfi (Nefarious, Entourage) and director, producer David Bruckner (Hellraiser 2022, The Night House) to discuss all things practical gore and creatures, making friends while cosplaying in Universal Citywalk, badass crew members named Dragon, paddle ball secrets, and their new film V/H/S/85! Jordan and David were more than gracious with their time and went deep on the joys of making something that harkens back to that mischievous child in all of us, aka “F*ck You” Movies. So grab a tub of karo syrup and strap in as the friendship pool of the SHUDcast starts to get bigger!
